This respository is for maintaining my Vagrant Box Templates using Packer which create machine images running a LAMP-Stack.

If you want to create the LAMP box yourself, you can do so with the following command in the "lamp" directory:

packer build -except="vaground-cloud" -var "version=1.0.0" -var-file="debian-12.4-amd64.json" .\lamp.json

The pre-built virtual machine (Virtualbox) is available on Vagrant Cloud. To start the virtual machine you need VirtualBox at least v7.0 and Vagrant at least v2. I recommend the latest version v2.4.1.

Use the pre-built virtual machine by changing to a directory such as dev.local and initialize the box with Vagrant:

mkdir dev.local
cd dev.local
vagrant init -m manhart/lamp
vagrant up

The box uses symbolic links. Under Windows this has to be activated separately.

The following optional variables are available in the Vagrantfile to customize the box:

VM_NAME = 'dev.local';
VM_IP = '192.168.56.11';
VM_SSH_PORT = '22022';

If you want to use more or different virtual hosts, you can add them to the Vagrantfile. The associated self-signed SSL/TLS certificates are also created for each VHost, e.g.:

VM_CLEAR_HOSTS = true;
HOSTNAME = VM_NAME.split('.')[0];
VM_VHOSTS = [
    {
      "server_name": "#{HOSTNAME}.local",
      "server_alias": ["*.#{HOSTNAME}.local"],
      "document_root": "/virtualweb/#{HOSTNAME}.local",
      "enable_http": true,
      "enable_https": true,
      "env_vars": {
        "_RelativeRoot": "..",
        "_Stage": "develop",
        "_SQL_Host": "vagrant@localhost",
        "_DefaultSessionDuration": "14400"
      }
    },
    {
      "server_name": "app.local",
      "document_root": "/virtualweb/app.local",
      "enable_http": true,
      "enable_https": true,
      "env_vars": {
        "_RelativeRoot": "..",
        "_Stage": "develop",
        "_SQL_Host": "127.0.0.1",
        "_DefaultSessionDuration": "14400"
      }
    }
];

By default, the box is configured with the following user data:
